Servlet
Examples with Code

This is a collection of examples which demonstrate some of the more
frequently used parts of the Servlet API. Familiarity with the Java(tm)
Programming Language is assumed.

These examples will only work when viewed via an http URL. They will
not work if you are viewing these pages via a "file://..." URL. Please
refer to the README file provide with this Tomcat release regarding
how to configure and start the provided web server.

Wherever you see a form, enter some data and see how the servlet reacts.

Tip: To see the cookie interactions with your browser, try turning on
the "notify when setting a cookie" option in your browser preferences.
This will let you see when a session is created and give some feedback
when looking at the cookie demo.

Note: The source code for these examples does not contain all of the
source code that is actually in the example, only the important sections
of code. Code not important to understand the example has been removed
for clarity.
